Affairs, Office of Management and

In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501

Information Collection Requirement
Title: On-Boarding Information for
New Hire Candidates.
Type of Request: New collection.
OMB Control Number: Not yet
assigned.
Form(s): NA.
Affected Public: TSA New Hires.
Abstract: In an effort to streamline
and add efficiency to the EOD process,
TSA has transformed the paper-based
process into an electronic one by
implementing a system known as
EODonline. Applicants who have
accepted a position with TSA are able
to log onto EODonline, where they
answer questions designed to gather the
necessary data to generate the standard
EOD forms. Using EODonline allows
employees to complete the EOD process
more expeditiously and accurately. TSA
will use the results of EODonline usage
to measure efficiencies gained through
implementation of the automated
system both on the part of the new hire
candidates (as applicable) and the
agency.
Number of Respondents: 10,400.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An
estimated 10,400 hours annually.

Information Collection Requirement
TSA’s Highway & Motor Carrier
Division will be producing a voluntary
security-related training course for the
hazmat motor carrier and shipper
industry. Participants will be able to
choose to attend instructor-led training
sessions that TSA will conduct at
multiple sites in the United States, and
TSA will advise the industry of the
availability of the training through trade
associations, conferences, and
stakeholder meetings. Hazmat motor
carriers and shippers that are registered
with the U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT) will automatically
receive the training via CD–ROM and
DVD. Companies may also complete the
training on-line at the TSA public Web
site, http://www.tsa.gov. The Web site
training is available to the public and
does not require a log-in or password.
After completion of the training
program, participants will have the
option to complete a course evaluation
form to comment on the effectiveness of
the training program. The participants
who choose to complete the training
evaluation form will submit the form via
e-mail to a secure Web surveyor tool
that is managed by TSA. Participants
who attend the classroom training
sessions will also be asked to complete
an evaluation form on-site, which will
later be entered into the Web surveyor
tool by TSA personnel. TSA will use
this data to measure the program’s
effectiveness at achieving its goal of
heightened security awareness levels
throughout the hazmat motor carrier
and shipper industry.
Hazmat motor carriers and shippers
that are registered with the DOT are
eligible to receive the training; there are
approximately seventy-five thousand
(75,000) shippers registered.
Currently, DOT requires awareness
and in-depth security training for
hazmat employees of persons required
to have a security plan in accordance
with subpart I of 49 CFR part 172
concerning the security plan and its
implementation. See 49 CFR
